NVT has a product called the Phybridge FLEX Switch which, when used with their FLEX-Link Adapter, they claim can deliver 100 Mbps and 30W PoE power from the switch to a device up to 2000ft (610m) away over CAT6/6E cable. That's higher power over a greater distance than I've seen from other EoTP devices. The only other one I know of that has similar specs is the Veracity LONGSPAN that claims 25W at up to 1968ft (600m). Does anyone have any first hand experience with either of these devices (NVT FLEX Switch or Veracity LONGSPAN)? Any recommendations for other EoTP extenders that can do 25W or 30W at a distance greater than 1000ft without needing local power (i.e. powered from the head end)?

Jan 18, 2020Tried with NVT Flex Base + Flex Link combination and works unbelievably fine. Working since last one year at max distance of 550 meters.

Jan 18, 2020I haven't used those units but I have used the NVT-1701C PoE over coax units. other than them being blown out by lightning on a system where lightning protection should have used and wasn't. they are really good and have lasted a long time and simple to use. they also push PoE well over 800ft on coax and the sites I use them on.
They are also built a whole lot sturdier than most of the of shelf units I can get at ADI and other stores.

Jan 18, 2020That’s a good product. I specify the NVT NV-EC1701U Ethernet over 2 wire transceiver any time I need to put a camera in an elevator car.
